Mystie Winckler

Mystie Winckler married her high school sweetheart, Matt, at nineteen; together they have five children, two of whom are now in college, but all of whom have been homeschooled from the beginning. 

When she’s not teaching, checking work, or reading, Mystie publishes articles, podcast episodes, and videos on homemaking without overwhelm or perfectionism on her website, SimplyConvivial.com. Her community, Simply Convivial Continuing Education, is a treasure trove of mother-mentors engaged in the work at home to which they’ve been called.

Whether we’re talking about personal lives, homemaking duties, or homeschooling days, Mystie seeks to return to and live out the motto Repent. Rejoice. Repeat.
